Multi-baseline proton resonance frequency-shift (PRF) MR thermometry can reduce motion-induced temperature errors in moving organs during MR-guided thermal therapy. However, previous methods had to compromise the spatial coverage to increase the temporal resolution for resolving motion. This work developed a dynamic 3D stack-of-radial MRI method using compressed sensing reconstruction and image-based navigation to enable motion-resolved multi-baseline PRF thermometry with 1.4-sec true temporal resolution. The proposed method achieved stable thermometry with volumetric coverage in free-breathing liver MRI without heating.
